How to Choose the Right Necklace for your Neckline

November 16, 2023

When trying to find a necklace that looks the best with any neckline, there are a few things to keep in mind. Whether you are selecting a chunky chain necklace that draws attention or a subtle pendant necklace to complete your look, picking the perfect necklace is essential.

To make this process easier and to get the most out of your outfits, here are some tips to choose the ideal necklaces to finish your look!

Here at Dower & Hall we offer a range of beautiful necklaces – if you’re feeling bold, choose a vibrant beaded necklace that will draw attention. For easy-to-wear pieces, thin chains with pearls and short necklaces provide a seamless touch to an everyday outfit.

Here is a list of the best necklaces that go with various necklines.

Necklaces for a V-Neckline

Longer necklaces with a pendant are always an excellent option for a V-neck as it will add a sparkle without complicating the look. If you’re looking for the perfect pendant necklace, take a look at the selection which features an Entwined pendant, a Locket and a glamorous piece from the Fine Collection- Anemone.

Necklaces for a Low-cut Neckline

Necklaces with low-cut necklines can be timeless and alluring. When selecting a necklace to wear, it is important to consider the style and length of the necklace and the style of the dress. More extravagant necklaces will draw attention away from the neckline while smaller chains will emphasize it. Here are a few different suggestions.

Round Neckline

This neckline is the easiest to style as they look great with every necklace. If you want to create a simpler look, take inspiration from the Nomad and Talisman collection as these unique pieces offer the perfect touch to an everyday outfit. If you’re feeling more adventurous, wear a statement necklace with colour and texture. Take a look at our Orissa collection which features an array of colourful semi-precious gemstones.

Turtle Neckline

Most importantly, for turtle necklines, long necklaces that can create a visible line are the best. This is because longer chains are typically more flattering and can stand out from a high neckline. Short pendant necklaces also go amazing with turtle necklines. For example, the Men’s Engravable Waterfall ID Tag Pendant is perfect for the turtleneck look. For more inspiration, the beautiful Hammered Disc & 5mm Peridot Array Pendant is ideal if you want some sparkle. The ultimate choice for an eye-catching look is the Long Green Gemstone & Baroque Pearl Necklace.

When choosing the right necklace for your neckline, it is about balance. For example, if you’re wearing a plunging neckline wear a necklace that stands out and vice versa. Experiment with our necklaces and pendants and you will be able to find the perfect neckwear for any outfit.
